Two Crowns
Among the many one is called,
to serve the Lord mind and body,
to bring about the final day,
to resolve sin and subjugation.

Bring the banners and flags from all over,
gather all in the Promised Land,
pick the best as an offering to the altar,
bow to the Highest the Redeemer of mankind.

As we were born through Adam and Eve,
Our True Parents are the King and Queen,
our ancestors will be pure lineage,
the blood of God, the chosen children.

Individuals, clans, tribes and nations,
they all under one command from God,
following joyfully the Divine Principles,
Singing aloud to the new King Lord.

Ripples

Come and go,
as the sun goes down,
but the will fades to give up,
because there is no more.

The will is weak,
the desire is greater than the wave,
but the ripple of the ocean,
call at who is there to notice.

The way love is made,
the way love is perfected,
on the will of someone,
who is no one, but the will itself.

Raymond de Jesus Lopera

Color

Your name is color,
which brought life to life,
and that shows movement,
of imaginary rainbows.

Those rays of light,
which origin and purpose revive,
as they approach others beams of sight,
as they congregate pretty in corners.

But, they fulfill their purpose,
when they hit the albeit torrid,
horizon land of many lines,
that produce a luminary carousel.

A Rainbow of colors,
the rain sings out,
drops of fresh liquid,
production of Love, pearls.

Appreciation
The honor of the mother to the son,
or the father's pride of being one,
is the thanks parents sing in unison,
when they have the first born.

The smile that the teacher brings,
when the pupil promptly responds the answer,
the graduate when he receives his laurels,
the inventor when he patents his findings.

To bend down in complete subjugation,
to the one above who is Mighty exaltation,
to believe in oneself with all intention,
to give more than receive in inspiration.

To My Mother
Mother,how can I thank you?,
you gave me life and wisdom,
you brought me vision and a kingdom,
to conquer and to mold.I miss you.

Mother, there is nothing that compares your love,
whenever I think of you, I see you standing,
with pride and caste so oustanding,
how beautiful it is, how great is life.

Mother, here is to our victory
an invisible cup filled with wine,
raised to the sky in chant of glory,
Mother and Son, our love divine.

To John Lennon
A Prayer For Peace.
Abroad in the air your words spread,
reaching horizons that could never be measured,
only the Lord could bless that extension,
far beyond the stars, much much afar.

The power of the word expressed,
carries the spirit and the message,
there will be a change, there will be a dream,
let us join together in a prayer for peace.

To fulfill our purpose we came here,
yours was to sing aloud to the world,
the words of love and revolution,
to bring peace and to stop confusion.

The days are gone but the time is here,
motionless, like a picture taken by surprise,
that light, the aura of your body,
reflected your mind, your music and your country.

Lawrence
To Sir Lawrence Olivier
All the world certainly a stage,
when somebody dies like you,
we also die a bit for sure,
we that knew you, will miss you.

All men and women that played their role,
were merely making your stage their world,
you were their teacher and their love,
for there is no one like you, My Lord.

As a school boy, as a soldier,
as the righteous, as the scoundrel,
you were great, you were master,
we are going to keep you alive in a candle.

Your tears in "Weathering Heights",
your command in "Spartacus",
your tenderness in "Little Romance",
your life, living a charater to the highests.

Hidden Images
Just behind we see,
there is another world to be,
is more real, more pure and free,
is the one that provides freedom
to the slave in me.

The essence beyond matter,
the core of creating something from nothing,
the impression of catching glimses in the air,
of an image that exists behind the eye of the seer.

We are part of that invisible sight,
we are all those things low and high,
we are rational because of light,
we are the center of that world of Might.

Dear Bob Hope!
I am sending you this letter,
I don't know where it would go,
but, I know you will receive it,
because in heaven there is a mailbox too.

Your service to this country,
was not funny matter at all,
you gave your charm and jest,
and better yet, your kindness to us all.

Your Wife Dolores knows how hard you worked,
your dedication and faith gave "Hope" to this
world,
Thanks for the memories,
Rest in peace my Friend,
I will say the jokes on you.

COURAGE
Dedicated to George W.Bush
Oh! America beloved country,
your freedom reigns in every corner,
it smells in the air like an apple pie,
and it tastes as good as a turkey dinner.

No matter what the mind might say,
circumstances happen,some grave than more,
"Truth is like a white elephant",I heard,
well,we painted it with the red white and blue.

One man with the courage of his Father,
gave that step,like jumping from a plane,
expanded the horizons so far and so brave,
that made us all proud and alive again.

The Lord of eyes
The lines of a triangle line up,
to form the vertex of love,
the middle accurate point of life,
projected into the infinite top.

This temple well measured prepared,
in the early morn as the light brakes in,
and finds that point that conveys aligned,
with the time, the speed and the space.

Once it hits on the vortex defined,
a big sound of joy is pronounced,
and many stars spark bright on the sky,
as the fire works on the 4th of july.

Petals
Encrusted in diamonds and pearls,
they bright as the early morn touch their curls,
fresh air that caress their surfaces,
the smell as we approach their lands.

They fall sometimes as they stand,
as many people keep them in books as reminders,
or they dry them up for aroma pleasentness,
that cleans and mixes with the air rancidness.

We give them to people as celebration of life,
as completion of a new season,
we give them to heroes and winners,
they are a gift of love and appreciation.
